Hello All- I am an intern with EY-P deals advisory (FDD). I am thinking about exploring EY-P transaction strategy and execution for full time. Is this doable for an intern? What should my plan be to make this happen? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

i’m an undergraduate student. Apologies, but I’m not sure how this process works for undergrad vs MBA.

This is a gamble to pull this off. You can be upfront about it and hope the partner doesn't mind helping you out. Or you can accept this offer and rerecruit it on the side at other firms. Assuming you're an accounting major, you will get a lot of pushback and people wondering if you have the ability to do this role.
Get your story straight and decide if you want it bad enough to where you're willing to risk your offer.

Target schools include but not limited to ivy's and ivy plus schools. I agree it's possible, but very difficult without buy in support. For some reason strategy roles hate accounting majors in my experience.

Not the results I was hoping for this morning. Went for my first appointment before starting injections this evening. Only 9 follicles. Was told birth control can suppress some so they may just not be visible yet but feeling very panicked now despite the doctor saying it was ok for my age.

This journey is taxing.

Are private companies easier to work at than public companies in accounting? We have such an accelerated close deadline at the publicly traded company I’m at now, I really hate the inflexible tight deadlines and analysis seems to drag on forever after that. We also close AP/AR very early in the month yet that doesn’t stop payments/receipts from happening so we’re constantly adjusting our accruals until the end of month. Do private companies start their close after the month actually ends?
